Are landlords really selling up in droves? If so, what’s the smartest way to do it?

In this episode of The Coping Mechanism, Daren is joined by Annie and Simon Joyce to unpack one of the biggest questions facing landlords right now: should you sell your investment property with vacant possession, or with a tenant in situ?

With the Renters’ Rights Act changing the rules around possession, selling a buy-to-let is no longer as straightforward as it once was. We explore the pros and cons of both options, from notice periods, prohibitive periods and remarketing restrictions, through to buyer demand, rental income, stress levels and sale price. In other words, everything a landlord needs to think about before heading for the exit.

Expect practical advice, a bit of banter, and a clear look at what really matters when deciding how to sell in today’s market.

In this episode:

🔹 Selling with vacant possession

🔹 Selling with a tenant in situ

🔹 How the Renters’ Rights Act affects landlords selling up

🔹 Notice periods, restrictions and potential fines

🔹 Which option may suit your property and circumstances best

If you’re a landlord considering your next move, this episode is for you.
